Guest jtsaint Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Orange just told me " Why ai man there still testing em, thems arent out yet " I am going to get one from a store anyway since its going to be so much less hassle. So many time over the last few years the "customer care" team have messed up my upgrades - sending phones to random people and claiming its my fault, sending me two phones ( again alledgedly my fault), sending the wrong phone, chargilng me twice .....

Guest Dectomax Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Iam on payg at the mo. Can you only get an e200 NOW if you are upgrading or are they available for new contracts, pay monthly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rhaleuk Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 For something that I will use EVERY SINGLE DAY for the next year, that includes an MP3 player, camera, video recorder, voice recorder, email, calendar, games machine and SO MUCH MORE - I dont consider £199.99 too much money no. I dont consider it cheap, but I can easily justify it. And trust me, I dont earn a whole lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FrankyG Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 just got my hands on one, at a Glasgow Orange shop. I won't post anything about the phone as Paul has covered it in another thread, except that camera refresh rate is much better, and it's nice and zippy :lol: Still not convinced that it's a good looking phone though :?

Guest spark-x Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I don't suppose its possible to transfer your orange number from an old contract to a new one is it? I guess the only way to do this would be to transfer it to another network (pay as you go) then transfer it back... but this would take weeks or months if they delay the transfer as much as they used it. Also, with Orange it always seems their shops outside London get these new handsets first, or maybe they just always sell out before i can get to the shop... The shop closest to my work is on Oxford Street, one you would expect them to keep well stocked with their latest technology (to act as a showcase) sx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pagemakers Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Yes - Upgrade. If you are inside 12 months you will pay a fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spark-x Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 rhaleuk - sounds like you use it for lots of tasks (MP3 player, camera, video recorder, voice recorder, email, calendar, games machine) ... do you find the battery lasts 24hours if you do all this on it? sx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But charging every night isnt an issue for me. I dont have the E200 in my hands yet, but apparently battery life is better than the current public SPV build thats available so Im not moaning about battery life.

Guest jason8 Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 YAY! I got my SPV e200! BUT THERE IS A DEAD PIXEL! Nice and bright blue and u can't just ignore it, its right in your face! :lol: Why oh Why? ;) :( :) :) :( Anyone notice a orangey/yellow tinge to the bottom of the screen? when the display is on there are bands of yellow and orange from the bottom to about 1/5th the way up the screen? It seems that the fps on the camera is much higher in natural light than in indoor lighting. (well thats what i've seen so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Croccy22 Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I would take it back to the shop. if they won't replace it then just cancel the contract which you should have 14days to do. I know it is only one pixel but you are gonna see that everytime you look at your phone for the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jason8 Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I work for Orange so i don't think they are gonna argue with me over the dead pixel. This e200 is definitely going back to my store! Man I was looking forward to this day for AGEEEEEEES, and its ruined cos of a crappy screen! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vector Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 @Jason8 , i have the orangey yellowy tinge on my E100 screen, and a few other people have also, doesn't really bother me anymore tho :lol: , i'm hoping that when i get an E200 i will get lucky and have a perfect screen ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jason8 Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Apart from the screen, this phone ROCKS! It really is great, much much improved on the SPV. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
